AnyScam.com has been moved to
The SCARS Institute Encyclopedia of Scams

Twelve Years of Data
For more than twelve years, scam victims and volunteers reported the phone numbers, email addresses, names, and profiles that scammers used against them on AnyScam.com. That work now lives here, as the SCARS Institute AnyScam Database, rebuilt to make it easier to search, safer to use, and open to new reports.
Before you trust someone you met online, search for their phone number, email address, name, or profile link. You’ll see whether it has been reported to SCARS Institute, how often, and when. You can also read real messages that scammers have sent, with victims’ details removed, so you can learn to recognize their words before they reach you.
Help Protect Others
If a scammer contacted you, report their profile link, email address, or phone number. SCARS Institute staff review every report before it appears in the database.
Please keep in mind that a listing is a report, not proof. Scammers steal real people’s names and photos, and phone numbers pass from one owner to the next, so an innocent person can appear here. If something listed here belongs to you and is listed in error, use the removal request form at the bottom of this page, and we’ll review it. And if nothing turns up in your search, that doesn’t mean someone is safe: scammers change their numbers, addresses, and names constantly.

I want to thank the Almighty GOD for giving us a new day. I should be honest with you that from the moment I started to interact with you, a certain lightning struck me with an indestructible love. I would like nothing more than to take this relationship we are building slowly and also I will like to be positive.
Me giving you my heart at this point does not mean that I am trying to rush everything about this but being positive about it. Hence, I would implore you to open your heart let’s see if we get the kick. It is obvious that this past week is one of the crazy weeks in my profession when 24 hours is not enough to complete my duty so I pray that this week will be less demanding. After my email to you yesterday, I got a call from my my company's head office in UK telling me that the confirmation and signing of a contract we were negotiating with a company called Fidelity I…

It is obvious that this past week is one of the crazy weeks in my profession when 24 hours is not enough to complete my duty so I pray that this week will be less demanding. After my email to you yesterday, I got a call from my my company's head office in UK telling me that the confirmation and signing of a contract we were negotiating with a company called Fidelity Investment has been confirmed for tomorrow in Fruita, Colorado. I had few hours to make every arrangement to go to Fruita, CO. Anyway, let me not bore you with my business engagements. I arrived here couple of hours ago. After the contract is finalized, I will be returning Manhattan straight away. I just hope that the business transaction will go smoothly.
Baby I just want you to know that there is no doubt that I enjoy our communication so all we need to do is to develop the relationship and build the love. Every strong relationship started one day and became stronger as each new day comes. I am a man that has been without any form of relationship; serious or casual for the past four years. When I lost my wife it became obvious to me that the world was nothing. She was my friend, my partner, my pet, my soldier and my pillar. She was everything to me and all that I owe her was to make her happy at any time and she was happy. May her gentle soul rest in peace. AMEN. Sorry if I have said so much but it’s my nature to love strongly when I am in love and I believe in one
